Massage and Reiki
Holistic Massage
By taking into account your whole being and looking at your physical symptoms in the context of your life, holistic massage has the power to help with so many of the problems you probably try to put up with... thinking the pain is just down to old age, being a mother, part of sitting at a desk all day. Be it deep tissue, remedial treatments, or massage designed to assist with the added stresses of pregnancy, holistic massage can help. If you recognise a few of the list below, then take a couple of minutes to consider what holistic massage can do for you.
- Tight muscles – not as flexible as you remember being?
- Tight neck or pain in your shoulders or back?
- Feeling stressed or uptight?
- Stiff joints?
- Dry skin?
- Feeling low and tired?
Reiki
Reiki is based on Eastern concepts of re-aligning the seven energy centres and bringing the body into a natural balance physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. During this ancient healing technique, the hands are placed on parts of the body that correspond to the major energy centres; the energy washes down through the body clearing energetic obstructions and strengthening the flow of the meridians.
Reiki reduces stress related illnesses and promotes deep relaxation and can be used to reduce the pain caused by many common ailments. If you recognise a few of the list below, then take a couple of minutes to consider what Reiki can do for you.
- Headaches?
- Stomach upsets?
- Back aches?
- Low immunity - do you keep getting colds?
- Asthma and other respiratory problems?
- PMT and other menstrual problems?
- Anxiety?
Ayurvedic Massage
Based on the traditional Indian science of Ayurveda, this treatment is the perfect way to reduce muscle tension, remove toxins, relieve stress and balance energy. Warm, nourishing, black sesame herbal oil is poured onto your body and massaged in a flowing, rhythmic sequence, which incorporates the marma points or vital areas throughout the body, resulting in a balanced and grounded feeling. If you recognise a few of the list below, then take a couple of minutes to consider what Ayurveda can do for you.
- Anxiety, mental busyness, nervousness?
- Feelings of anger, irritated?
- Lethargy, fatigue, sluggishness?
- Insomnia?
- Poor digestion?
- Low immunity?
Ancient Stone Therapy
Stone Therapy transforms an ancient therapeutic ritual into a contemporary and luxurious experience by using both physical and metaphysical energies to balance the mind, body and spirit. This unique form of massage therapy uses warmed volcanic stones to melt muscle tension and subtly cooled marble stones to draw out the heat from inflammations. During the treatment, warmed stones will be positioned on key energy points of the body including the chakras to improve the flow of energy. The stones are then used to massage the muscles in conjunction with regular massage techniques, leaving you revitalised and rejuvenated. If you recognise a few of the list below, then take a couple of minutes to consider what stone therapy can do for you.
- Poor circulation - do you have cold hands and feet?
- Build up of toxins?
- Low energy - do you feel tired and lethargic?
- Back aches?
- Trouble sleeping?
- Fluid retention - do you have swollen ankles?
